How To Protect Your Car From Road Salts
Date: November 30, 2006 With the winter months upon us, every driver should take steps to protect their vehicle from road salts. Road salt has been used since 1930 for snow and ice control because it is the most available and cost-effective.
You should wash your car during the winter to maintain the value of your car. The combiniation of mud, sleet, rain, snow and the salt can damage your clear coat. It can also cause rust on the undercarriage if it remains caked on. To prevent this, wash your cars every 10 days. Always wash your car whenever the temperature is above 40 degrees and do it during the day so the car will dry before the freezing temps at night. Wash your car after any rain or snow to prevent pollutants from damaging your cars protective finish. Also wash the underside of your car often and avoid driving through large puddles of water.
